Are you saying there is no stock 65mm TB that may work with the stock 951 TPS?

That's the right place for the connectors, you have to supply your own hose! I get the fabric covered hose from one of my German parts suppliers (wholesale only so link won't help!).

I am sure there is - but the 951 TPS have a nonstandard resistance range. It can be used for stand alone systems but its much easier to use a throttle body with a typical TPS range. It also means that you don't have to buy a stupid expensive Porsche TPS when the old one starts acting up!

with some small changes I have some throttle bodies that can fit the stock manifold with no changes to the throttle cable or any other engine parts. They are also readily available in 60,65,70,75mm sizes brand new for a couple of hundred bucks (plus the cost to modify them).

Chris, are you a supplier for these TB's you mentioned? If so I am very interested in a 60mm TB. When you say "no changes to the throttle cable or any other engine parts" does that include the IC piping? I have my machinist looking at boring a stock tb out but would much rather just purchase from you.

Yes, it fits the IC pipes with out mods. Are you running a stand alone system?

I think I may have misread your post. I am running a modified Rogue M Tune with the stock TPS.

OK, these throttle bodies use a TPS that does not work with the stock DME.
